Hi there! π
I'm Dean. I'm a Ruby on Rails developer based in the UK. I've been working with Ruby for 10 years and have built and maintained hundreds of Rails apps over that time. I also maintain and administer multiple Linux servers.
If you like my work, please consider buying me a coffee - every coffee is really appreciated!
You can find me on Twitter or you can view my site at deanpcmad.com
My current projects are:
- FlowBot (aka FlorenceBot) - A custom Twitch chat bot and game giveaway system with commands, quotes and more!
- StreamVODs - A service which allows streamers to backup their Twitch streams to YouTube. It also allows users to watch them back with chat as they were live!
- Subpoints - A tool for Twitch streamers to show their subscriber and subscriber points counts on a stream overlay.
My current open source projects are:
- sidekiq-limit_fetch - A Sidekiq plugin to support advanced queue control (limiting, pausing, blocking, querying). I took this project over in March 2022.
- TwitchRB - A Ruby library for the Twitch Helix API
- Paddle - A Ruby library for the Paddle Billing & Classic APIs
